Cops: Nude Driver's Conduct distracting
CBS News ^

Posted on 09/05/2007 12:04:53 PM PDT by John Cena

AP) A naked man driving along the Indiana Toll Road was arrested and charged because his lewd conduct distracted other motorists, police said.

The 37-year-old Chicago man was traveling east to Ohio to visit his mother, police said. He was nude and had petroleum jelly on his hands when a state trooper pulled him over about 10 miles from the Ohio line Wednesday, police said.

The man, who told police he was comfortable driving in the nude, was charged with misdemeanor indecent exposure, punishable by up to a year in jail.

The trooper, Al Martinez, a four-year veteran of the Indiana State Police, said he walked up to the passenger side of the SUV and saw that the man had dropped a T-shirt across his midsection. Other motorists had called police about the driver, with several calls from truckers who could see into the front seat of the SUV.

Martinez made the man put his clothes back on before handcuffing him and putting him in the back of the squad car.

The man was released Thursday from the Steuben County Jail on $1,000 bond

I hope he gets a stiff sentence.

Unlikely, ..cos the evidence won't stand up in court.

There, fixed it..

Speakin’ from personal, professional experience here:

When you’re up in the cab of a big-rig, there ain’t much you don’t see. I’ve never seen a totally naked wanker like this dude, but I’ve seen some things I’d rather not have...

His excuse in court will be that the cop gave him a hard time.

"Why are truckers looking into the passenger portions of peoples’ cars?"

They're looking for nekkid women, or a titty shot. They were greivously traumatized by this guy and called the PD to punish him for it. They were hunting for and expected nekkid women, and this guy ruined their day.

Depends on the temperature.

So, how do you know another driver is nude instead of just missing a shirt?

A few.

(Which is enough to get nearly every male trucker to check for them.)

Really? I though most truckers were looking for naked men. Jim McGreevey said so!

Then again, when faced with the choice between a lot lizard and a local twink, maybe some of those truckers would rather close their eyes and pretend with the twink...

Well depends where you live... plenty of liberal college girls in this area drive in little bikini tops on the HWY... and some of them even flash the truck drivers... Should also mention that there are a lot of trucks this time of year as grain harvest is just about done. And a couple of the gals that drive truck around here have been known to drive like the guys, sans shirt...
